WS-2R INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

INTRODUCTION This remote Wireless Wall Switch system was developed to provide a safe, reliable, and user-friendly remote control system for gas heating appliances. The system can be operated manually from the transmitter. The system operates on one of 65,536 security codes that are programmed into the transmitter at the factory. WALL TRANSMITTER

The wall transmitter operates on a (2) 3V button cell batteries (included) made

specifically for remote controls and electronic lighters. Before using the wall transmitter, install the two (2) 3V button cell batteries. Follow instructions below.

The wall transmitter has an ON/OFF rocker switch. When the rocker switch on the wall transmitter is pressed, a signal light on the wall transmitter illuminates briefly to verify that a signal has been sent. If the signal light does not illuminate, check the batteries. Upon initial use, there may be a delay of five seconds before the remote receiver will respond to the wall transmitter.

TO INSTALL BATTERIES

1. Remove face from backing plate by insetting a small screwdriver into the small slot at the top or bottom of the faceplate as shown below then snap OFF.

2. Locate the (2) holders for the 3V button cell batteries. 3. Place the button cell batteries into the battery holders and snap into place. (Make sure that the batteries are installed with the (+) plus side as shown to the right. 4. After the batteries are installed replace the faceplate on the base.

TO REMOVE THE BATTERIES

1. Remove face from backing plate by insetting a small screwdriver into

the small slot on the side at the top or bottom of the faceplate as shown to the right then snap OFF.

2. Locate the (2) holders for the 3V button cell batteries. 3. Insert a small screwdriver into the slot at the button cell battery and pop the battery out (Slots shown in picture above). 4. After the batteries are installed replace the faceplate.

WALL MOUNTING THE TRANSMITTER

1. The wireless wall switch must be located within 20’ of the receiver, this is the normal operational distance.

2. Remove face from backing plate by insetting a small screwdriver into the Small slot at the top or bottom of the faceplate as shown to the right then snap OFF.

3. Locate the (2) tow mounting holes and mark the holes on the wall. Use the (2) two dry wall anchors and screws (that are supplied) to mount the base plate to the wall as shown. 4. The wall transmitter can also be mounted onto an existing (Plastic) electrical box.

5. Base plate should be mounted level on the wall for best operation.

REMOTE RECEIVER

IMPORTANT

THE REMOTE RECEIVER SHOULD BE POSITIONED WHERE AMBIENT TEMPERATURES DO NOT EXCEED 130° F.

The remote receiver (right) operates on four 1.5V AA-size batteries. It is recommended that ALKALINE batteries be used for longer battery life and maximum microprocessor performance. IMPORTANT: New or fully charged batteries are essential to proper operation of the remote receiver as a latching solenoid power consumption is substantially higher than standard remote control

systems. NOTE: The remote receiver will only respond to the transmitter when the 2-position slide button on the remote receiver is in the REMOTE position. The remote receiver houses the microprocessor that responds to commands from the transmitter to control system operation. FUNCTIONS: 1. With the slide switch in the REMOTE position, the system will only operate if

the remote receiver receives commands from the transmitter. Upon initial use or after an extended period of no use, the ON button may have to be pressed for up to three seconds before activating solenoid. If the system does not respond to the transmitter on initial use, see Matching Security Codes.

2. With the slide in the OFF position, the system is off. 3. It is suggested that the slide switch be placed in the OFF position if you will

be away from your home for an extended period of time. Placing the slide

switch in the OFF position also functions as a safety "lock out" by both turning the system OFF and rendering the transmitter inoperative.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

DO NOT CONNECT REMOTE RECEIVER DIRECTLY TO 110-120VAC POWER. THIS WILL BURN

OUT THE RECEIVER. FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS FROM MANUFACTURER OF GAS VALVE FOR CORRECT WIRING PROCEDURES. IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF ELECTRIC COMPONENTS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO GAS VALVE AND REMOTE RECEIVER, WHICH IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.

INSTALLATION

NOTE: INSTALLATION IN THE OPTIONAL CERAMIC LOG HOUSE (ITEM #RH2) IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The remote receiver can be mounted on or near the fireplace hearth. PROTECTION FROM EXTREME HEAT IS VERY IMPORTANT. Like any piece of electronic equipment, the remote receiver should be kept away from temperatures exceeding 130º F inside the receiver case. Battery life is also significantly shortened if batteries are exposed to high temperatures.

Make sure the remote receiver switch is in the OFF position. For best results it is recommended that 18 gauge stranded wires should be used to make connections and no longer than 20 ft.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

CONNECTING THE RECEIVER TO A VALVE WITH THE LATCHING SOLENOID 1. Connect the BLACK 18 gage stranded wire with the ” female terminal from the receiver to the BLACK wire with the 1/4” male

terminals from the valve solenoid. 2. Connect the RED 18 gage stranded wire with the ” female terminal from the receiver to the RED wire with the 1/4” male terminals

from the valve solenoid. 3. After receiver wires are connected to the valve solenoid wire make sure the receiver shield is located over the receiver and then

locate the receiver in an area that will not exceed the 130° F.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Operation of these controls is dependent on which wire is attached to which terminal. If operation of control does not correspond to operating buttons on transmitter, reverse wire installation at the receiver or at the control. NOTE: Up to 6.3 VDC of power is provided at the receiver terminal.

THERMOSTAT-SAFETY FEATURE – BPR-1 RECEIVER

When the ambient temperature at the THERMISTOR, inside the receiver case, reaches 130°F, the THERMISTOR will automatically send 2 pulses of power to the off terminal on the valve to shut the fireplace system off and the RECEIVER will begin emitting a series of 2 "beeps" every 4 seconds. When the ambient temperature, at the RECEIVER, drops between 120° F and 130° F, the user can

reactivate the fireplace by pushing either button on the transmitter. When any transmitter button is pressed, the THERMISTOR "resets" itself and the fireplace will begin operating again. However, the "beeping" will continue, if the ambient temperature remains between 120° F and 130° F. This "beeping" alerts the user that the RECEIVER should be repositioned so the ambient temperature drops below 120° F. When the temperature drops below 120° F, the "beeping" will cease, providing the user has "reset" the THERMISTOR by pushing either transmitter button to operate the fireplace. Allow sufficient time for receiver to cool below 120° F, and then press transmitter button to stop beeping.

GENERAL INFORMATION MATCHING SECURITY CODES Each transmitter can use one of 65,536 unique security codes. It may be necessary to press the LEARN button on the remote receiver accept the transmitter security code upon initial use, if batteries are replaced, or if a replacement transmitter is purchased from your

dealer or the factory. In order for the receiver to accept the transmitter security code, be sure the slide button on the receiver is in the

REMOTE position; the receiver will NOT "LEARN" if the slide switch is in the OFF position. Press the LEARN button on the remote receiver to accept the transmitter security code Push and Release the LEARN button on the front of the remote receiver and then Press any button on the transmitter. A change in the beeping pattern, at the receiver, indicates the transmitter's code has been accepted into the receiver. When an existing receiver has accepted the new transmitter, the new security code will overwrite the old one.

The microprocessor that controls the security code matching procedure is controlled by a timing function. If you are unsuccessful in matching the security code on the first attempt, wait 1 - 2 minutes before trying again--this delay allows the microprocessor to reset its timer circuitry--and try up to two or three more times. OPERATION 1. This remote wall switch will operate the gas valve’s latching solenoid to open the gas flow to full ON.

2. When the ON button is depressed the transmitter sends a RF signal to the receiver. The receiver then sends a pulse of 6 volts of power to the solenoid. The solenoid then opens the gas flow to the burner then to full ON.

3. When the OFF button is depressed the transmitter sends a RF signal to the receiver. The receiver then sends a pulse of 6 volts of power to the solenoid. The solenoid then closes the gas flow to the burner then to full OFF.

4. The remote wall switch will only work with the hand held transmitter. The receiver slide switch is only for positive OFF or REMOTE operation.

NOTE: Extensive use of the Latching Solenoid (ON/OFF) will reduce the receiver's battery life significantly.

BATTERY LIFE Life expectancy of the alkaline batteries in the WS-2R can be up to 12 months depending on use of the solenoid function. Replace all batteries annually. When the transmitter no longer operates the remote receiver from a distance it did previously (i.e., the transmitter's range has decreased) or the remote receiver does not function at all, the batteries should be checked. It is important that the remote receiver batteries are fully charged, providing combined output voltage of at least 5.0 volts. The transmitter should operate with as little as 2.4 volts battery power. NOTE: Extensive use of the Solenoid will reduce the receiver's battery life significantly.

TROUBLE SHOOTING If you encounter problems with your fireplace system, the problem may be with the fireplace itself or it could be with the WS-2R remote system. Review the fireplace manufacturer's operation manual to make sure all connections are properly made. Then check the operation of the remote in the following manner: 1. Make sure the batteries are correctly installed in the RECEIVER. One reversed battery will keep receiver from operating properly. 2. Check battery in TRANSMITTER to make sure contacts are touching (+) and (-) ends of battery. Bend metal contacts in for tighter

fit. 3. Be sure RECEIVER and TRANSMITTER are within 20'-25' operating range. 4. Keep RECEIVER from temperatures exceeding 120° F. Battery life shortened when ambient temperatures are above 115° F. 5. If RECEIVER is installed in tightly enclosed metal surround, the operating distance will be shortened.

NOTE:

1. A receiver located in an area, where the ambient temperature inside the case exceeds 130° F, will cause the THERMOSTAT-SAFETY feature to cut in, requiring you to reposition the receiver to stop the warning beeps, and to "reset" the receiver's operation.

2. Due to handling and shipping of the unit, handling or dropping of the transmitter by the customer, and/or heat conditions at the receiver, some receivers may need an occasional frequency adjustment. This adjustment is made to improve the communication and operating distance between the transmitter and the receiver. Follow the steps below for making the adjustment.

FREQUENCY (DISTANCE) ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE RECEIVER ADJUSTMENT

1. To adjust at the receiver, use a small slotted screwdriver. Turn the adjustment (ADJ)

screw counter-clockwise about 5° or maximum of 1/8 turn. This should correct the distance problem.

2. If that does not correct the problem, return adjustment screw to original position and then turn adjustment screw clockwise.

This adjustment is like tuning your radio. If you keep turning the adjustment screw, in either

direction, you will go past the proper setting (tuning).
